Interac e-Transfer Bulk Disbursement eliminates the need to handle cash payments or issue, track and reconcile costly cheques as it allows businesses to securely send multiple payments in a single file upload using an automatic file transfer.

In order to ensure security, each payment is password protected. Recipients can deposit their funds anywhere and anytime when they have access to online or mobile banking without disclosing their personal financial information.

With Interac e-Transfer Bulk Disbursement, merchants only require a recipient’s e-mail address or mobile phone number to send a payment.
